dark clouds that have for so many
years been obscuring it's rays, to shed
abroad fresh and invigorated life.
Our generous soil has in the year
just past returned to the husband
man more bountiful crops than have
rewarded his labor for many seasons,
and better prices have encouraged
him to redoubled efforts. Our rapid
ly increasing mills have renewed the
whirl of the Wealth-producing ma
chinery, arousing the hum and ex-
citement Of busy life where before
all seemed almost dead and hopeless.
New life, energy and activity are be-
ing infused into all pursuits and oc-
cupations, and the pathway to gen.
eral progress and improvement opens
most invitingly since commulica-
tion with the great West, the dream
of our fathers, is being vigorously
pushed to completion by lines of
railroad that promise to eventually
bring into our borders the rich pro-
ducts of that teeming section.

GEN. MANEY GREGG.-Gen. Max
ey Gregg was a native of Columbia.
He graduated at the South Carolina
college and studied law. He was
Major in the second regiment sent
to Mexico. After his return he prac-
ticed his profession with great sue
cess and ability until the war, when
he went to Charleston in command
of the 1st S. C. V. After Fort Sum-
ter was taken he went with his reg
iment to Virginia, and at Vienna
surprised Schenck and drove him
back. This was about the first skirm-
ish near Washington. This regi-
ment was disbanded. He raised
another and was soon made briga-
dier general. With this command
he opened the fight at Gaines Mill
and stayed with it until killed at
Fredericksburg, December 18th, 1862,
He particularly distinguished him
self at the second Manassas. He was
a fine lawyer, a patriotic citizen,
gallant soldier, and died for his
cOuntry.-A6beUiUe Medium.

On THE MOUNT OF OLIvEs.-The
tower which is being erected by the
Russians on the highest point Of the
Mount of Olives is already several
stories high but one more is to be
added. The object is to make it so
high that both the Mediterranean
and Dead Sea may be seen from the
top. A number of bells will be plac-
ed in the tower. In digging the
foundation seven Christian graves
were found together with an inscrip.
tion in Greek, in which the word
"Stephanus" could yet be deciphered.

think of the matter. Your legal mind will
perhaps enable you to deduce something
from Eustace's letter to his sister which
may be Of service to you and Edward
Layton. To me they are simply incom
prehensible. Before visit Miss Rutland
tomorrow will call on you. You may
have something to say to me. I sincerely
trust shall not be the means of bringing
fresh trouble upon her and hers"
With that he wished me good night, and
I was left alone.
I set myself sedulously to the task Of
discovering the key to these mysterious
letters.
DR.. Daincourt had not opened the two
sealed letters which had arrived during
Miss Rutland's illness, and did not i'm
mediately do so.
I felt delicacy with respect to Edward
Layton's letter to the young lady which
he had given me in prison to post for
him.
Iput them aside, and selecting the first
of the two letters from Eustace Rut-
land which had been found in Mabel's
desk Judging from the postmarks on
their envelopes which of the two
she had first received, for they bore
no date), devoted myself to study of
it.

CURED THE LAZY SAILORS,
Ingenious Manipulation of Seid-
Iitz Powder by a Scotch Purser.

Said New York druggist to an Even
ing Sun reporter: sit remained for
purser on a sailing packet to find the
best way of taking SeidlitZ powder.
His name is John Fraser, and he is
thorough wag, with enough of his na
tive Scotch stolidity to help him carry
out his practical jokes. He was on a
ship named the Clara Bell, bound for
Jamaica, and he hired in an emergency
four darkieS among the crew. For sew
eral days out the darkies were all the
time complaining of being Seasick, and
could not work. One morning he called
them into the cabin and told the biggest
of them, who had also been the greatest
grOwler, that he would give him
some nice medicine to cure him.
The purser then took half tumblerful
of water and stirred in the powders of
two blue papers. This he gave the de-
lighted negro to drink while he was
putting the white powder into another
glass of water. AS soon as the first
draught had been drunk he babe the
darby drink off the second one. The
grumbler did as he was hidden. Before
the contents were half down the negro
got so inflated that the buttons on his
clothes began popping off like pack of
lighted firecrackerS i'll barrel. His
eyes were jumping out of his head as
he tried to get his breath. With the
roar of dozen sea lions he rushed
from the cabin and lay down on the
deck to die
ibid he burSt?" asked the reporter
with sOlicitude.
He came very near it. The OtharS
suddenly got well and did not want any
medicine. Neither did he for the re-
mainder of that voyage"

English Autumn Leaves.

The London News notes with some
apparent surprise that there is a suffi-

to its passengers the autumnal glories

reproach to our poets that so many ap-

Funeral Baked Meats,

A very large funeral took place re-
Gently in township in the upper end
of Montgomery county, and the follow
ing list of things provided for the en-
tertainment and refreShment of the
mournerS is absolutely correct says the
Allentown penny Register. By the
time the funeral was over the supply
was pretty well exhausted. This is
what was consumed: One hundred and
twenty-six pies and cakes, fifty loaves of
bread, ten dozen light cakes, ten dozen
rolls, ten dozen mixed cakes, two dozen
pound cakes Zone pound EACH, four
hams, forty pounds roast beef, a cheese.
ten pounds dried peaches, eight pounds
prunes. fifteen pounds raisins flor pies,
seventeen pounds of sugar (used on
table,, besides twenty-five pounds used
in baking, six quarts ground coffee, be-
sides milk, relishes, potatoes, and lots
of other things good to be eaten. Eight
women and four men. neighbOrs OF the
deceased, spent the whole of the day
before the funeral in preparing, cook
ing, and baking for the event.

A GIRL DRUGGED.
The Terrible Story Told by Lizzie
Buckley

A rather handsome young woman,
possibly twenty years of age, was found
Oh lower Hennepin avenue. Minneapo-
lis, at an early hour Sunday morning by
Patrolman Calvin, apparently badly in
toxicated. She was taken to the First
precinct station, where she was found to
he suffering from some powerful drug,
One of her knees was badly bruised,
and Yesterday it became so bad that
Police Surgeon Kelly was called and he
sent the girl to the hospital. To the
doctor the girl told horrible story. She
said her name was Lizzie Buckley, and
that she lived on Cedar street
in st. Paul. About a week
ago she made the acquaintance of
''Hank" See;ey, well-known sporting
man of Minneapolis. and at his solicita-
here she drank a glass of beer with
Seeley, and remembered no more
until she woke up in a
room in a business block. Here
she was kept for a week,
she says, and. after being piled with
LIQUOR, was subjected to the viieSt treat
ment from Seeley and three other men,,
whom she did not know. Saturday
night she was made dru1 k, and taken
out riding in a hack by Seeley
and a friend. They rode around
until nearly morning. and when
on Hennepin avenue, near
Washington, the hack door was opened
and she was thrown out into the street,
falling upon the pavement. She hurt
hrr knee and was otherwise badly
bruised. The girls story, as above
given. was told in straightforward
way and bore evidence of being the
truth. The matter will be investigated.

JournaIists as Detectives.

In the opinion of the Paris CORE
spondent of the London Times one OF
the crying evils of the day is the way in
which journalists are making them
selves detectives. During the m0biliza-
ton one reporter denounced a colonel
for having made his regiment take bad
road, and another boosted of DIGGING a
man whom he believed to be spy. This
was derogatory enough, but in the CAT
farel affair things have been done
which in any other country would
have excited disgust. Thus, re-
porter calls on Mime. LimOuzin, is left
alone in the drawing room, sees some
visiting cards and notes on the
table. reads and copies them. and with
out the least hesitation publishes the
whole. Surely this is as scandalOus as
are Nine. LimouZin's own proceedings.
HencefOrth a journalist making call
ought not to be surprised if he is asked
to wait in the kitchen, where, at least.
he can spy out only the preparations
for dinner, an account of which would
be mere gossip. Inasmuch as the Paris
newspapers have syndicate cOmpriS-
ing honorable men, mindful of the dig
nifty of the press. would suggest that
such practices call for their cOnsidera-
ton much more than the exclusion from
the mobilization region of foreign jour
naliStS anxious to perform a duty con-
ScientiOuSly.

upon the persisted leaf" Keats beau

out mention of autumn tints upon the
trees. Even Tennyson rarely cOnjures
up this image, though it helps him to
tell how some one reeled 'as the old au-

priced autumn foliage not so much for
its beauty as for the SMILES it affords
for wan and hectic folk like painful I'M

age of late autumn has burst suddenly
into fashion among us. The ladies now
wear real autumn leaves in their bon

THE RHEUMATISM BUG.
The Alleged Extraordinary Japa-
nese Discovery Which Aston
ishes the Medical World

There is little stir in medical circles
here that may make NagaSaki known to
all the world in this connection. and
Pastuer and the hypnOtizing Partisan
will find themselves depOsed as lions in
medical society for young peasant
woman from village near here, who
has new theory and cure for rheuma-
tism, says Nagasaki letter III the ST..
Louis Globe-Democrat. Rheumatism,
according to her. is growth of small
parasites under the skin. small insect
that gnawS and bites and causes the ut
most misery and all the twinges of that
ailment. She has had for one of her pa
tients here a grizzled aud skep-
tieal sea captain. The mari
ner was completely laid up with
aneSe woman was sent for. She claimed
to see the movement of the parasite
under the skin, ordered footballs of
bran and hot rice brandy, and came an
other day with little steel hook and
nipped small white insects out by the
dozen. By the stories it must be large
white flea, for one of them, when brought
out to the surface, made a spring and
was lost to sight. One of the bystanderS
felt sting and the next day had sore
place on his arm, and, cutting into it,
it was found that the rheumatism bug
was there, burrowing like tick. The
regular practitioners are still skeptical
about the new theory of rheumatism.
They put one of the insects under a
microscope and decided that, by its or
ganisms, it never could have lived under
the surface of the skin away from the
air, and that she must have carried it
under her finger nail and produced it at
the proper moment. To this the sea
captain enters vigorous denial. He
says that she has taken the insects from
his knees and ankles by the hundreds
now, and that all have been killed in
his sight and that he is growing better
and can feel the relief after each treat

THE ST. PAUL TEAM.
1t Has Some Pretty Good Timber
After All.


Applying the test of official figures to
the new st, Paul team it is found to be
somewhat stronger than it was pre-
dicted it would be. The men are none
of them phenomenal for long or sure
hitting, but the team average is 1872,
better record than was made last sea-
son by any team in the league except
st. Paul. Such batting backed by cool
headed team work may be expected to
prove pretty successful in run getting.
The team is much stronger in base run
ners than last year. Both Jevne and
Murphy are stars on the bases; Shafer,
Reilly and Earle are much above the
average, and COrbett and Pickett pur-
lOin the second bag pretty often. Kemm-
Ter and Duryea are the only men in the
team who can be depended on not
to attempt a theft. The individ-
ual fielding averages of the mem
beers, with the exception of
Quest, who seems to have been dropped
from the list of second baSemen by the
secretary, are given below. Muir
phys average is taken from
the GLOBES own estimates, as
that given by Secretary Morton, 6S4, is
plainly erroneous and unjust. The
hOlh vi uOcS llOl
show up well, but good deal of their
bad play is undoubtedly chargeable to
the encouragement offered by other
members of the Duluth team in
wretched fielding. No reference is
made to Billy SOwders' brother i'm the
tables, as nothing is known of him in st.
Paul except that he is reported to be a
pulling left-handed pitcher and
good steady batter. In ball
playing there are occasional
marked exceptions to the usual rule;
but generally speaking. the work of a
man one season is a first-rate index of
what he will do the next. For instance,
BrOuthers, Arson, Kelly and Conner
can always be counted on to be some
where near the front in batting, Kelly
in base running and Glassceck and
Force in short stop work, in whatever
league or team they may play. Base

Two Big BIunders.

In making up the official fielding av-
erages Mr.. Morton does Murphy, of the
st. Paul team, great injustice.
Murphy really ranks eighth instead of
played in 120 games and not lis, as Mr..
Morton says. The official table reads as
follows:
20. A. E. TOT. CHI. AVE.
Murphy, St. Paul.74 25 81 40 .684
The correct figures are as follows:
20. A. E. TOT CH AVE
Murphy, ST. Paul. 222 "a So 252 .S7c
A mistake is also made in giving
Quest no fielding record or rank among
the second basemen.
